No worries! Keep us posted, and catch up with Owain about Korea, they have great races over there! I recommend the Gyeongju Cherry Blossoms 10k! I'm a bit into ultras at present, Jeju and the Trailwalker, but will return to my normal distances for the summer in Germany. Welcome to visit there in July/August! Also, good half/10k/Ekiden in Japan in fall!

Also I got your message about chat but it did not work for me. I was on an ipad at the time if that means anything.

Hi Juergen. It will be a very quick visit as. Fly in tomorrow morning then leave Sunday night. I have a busy period at work at the moment. This race is going to be a real stress-buster in fact! I have a goal of running an event (1/2 or full)somewhere in the world(but mostly in Asia) each month this year. I am so glad to find this site and see some other events in Japan/korea that have taken my eye so hopefully we can enter an event somewhere together.

Well, Kevin, keep us posted about your run! Will be keen to read how you did. Also, how long will you stay this time?

Thanks! I actually hope I can run a little fast at the start. Two years ago I was stuck in 2nd last corral and took ages (20+km) until I could run a straight line at my pace. Still had a blast though. Can't wait to repeat the fun on Sunday!
